Alibaba tests out AI-powered concept store

Alibaba has debuted its first FashionAI concept store.

This will be open from Thursday through to Saturday at Hong Kong Polytechnic University, and will showcase Guess apparel through the likes of smart mirrors. In addition, each item has its own intelligent lock, supported by radio-frequency identification, gyro-sensors and Bluetooth low-energy chips. This allows the mirror to more accurately capture movement and spot the colours, styles and attributes that are most popular among customers.
